Seared Salmon with Steamed Green Beans and Brown Rice
Pan-seared wild salmon served with crisp steamed green beans and nutty brown rice, finished with a bright squeeze of zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Wild Atlantic Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Fresh Green Beans
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
0.5 medium Lemon
PREPARATION
Steam the fresh green beans in a steamer basket over boiling water for 5-7 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel to ensure a good sear, then season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers.
Place the salmon fillet in the pan, skin-side down, and press gently with a spatula for 30 seconds to prevent curling.
Sear the salmon for 4-5 minutes until the skin is golden and crisp, then carefully flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the center is just opaque.
While the salmon finishes, warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small saucepan or microwave until steaming.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the brown rice and steamed green beans.
Finish the dish with a generous squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the salmon and vegetables for a bright, clean finish.
